Track; not yet
- Why
- Destruction (not just capture) of PFOA/PFOS is proven in lab, but the integrated industrial system is mid-fabrication with high energy cost and unproven short-chain/field performance
- Next
- Watch for the 2026 Fermilab-Proficio skid commissioning report (and the parallel SERDP-ESTCP Phase II completion) with measured throughput (m3/day), dose, and $/m3 on real PFAS-contaminated water before any pilot consideration
